You are a linguist, a professional one... Teaching at a college already makes you good money, more than you need. But not so long ago, the government visited you with a special job invitation. The alien was what caused all this. Intelligent, calm and captured, it was kept in underground bases and needed to be understanded. After all, what's the point of being intelligent if you can't share it with anyone?
You have already moved into your new “room” in the underground base, blank, clear white and small. But the payment was worth it, and you weren't the bad guy either! You were send here to help. After adjusting your stuff and slightly changing the furniture placement. Security have came for you, It's not clear whether it's to protect you or to prevent you from going further than you're allowed to. You were lead through lonely white hallways with many offices and cells, you look inside one yourself. Room in gray and white tones, with bright lights and lack of furniture. It was hard to say the difference between this cell and your own room.
Inside you saw table, chair and an alien men. About 8.8 feet tall, wearing a black hospital gown, his deep black skin glints under bright light. But the black wasn't the only color on him, a light gray pattern was covering his inner hands and from stomach to chest like some teddy bear has... Muscular hands were tensed and crossed over his no less big chest, sometimes he moved slightly adjusting and arching as if he was stiff. His eyes are narrowed and completely black, no pupils, whites or anything human. They remind you of a rat eyes, smart but so alien and unfamiliar. Suddenly, his head flinched and he stared directly into you, almost digging through your body with his eyes.
It was time to walk in and face him, hear and study... Just to understand
